Chemical Engineering, BSChE

University of Alabama

Chemical engineering students have strong interests in math, chemistry, physics, and biology. These subjects are often combined and encountered throughout our curriculum. Overall, chemical engineering students are curious about how and why things work, and they have a desire to invent new ways to improve existing technology.The BSChE degree is a professional degree that prepares graduates for employment and graduate study in chemical engineering and related fields, as well as entry into professional programs such as medicine, dentistry, law, and business.While the baccalaureate degree curriculum contains many courses designed to sequentially introduce students to methodologies for understanding, defining, and solving a broad array of increasingly complex problems, there are elements in the program that also allow students to investigate exciting and challenging issues that often exist at the intersections where engineering and the sciences meet. Some of the elective and special program options are described below.
